Interim Report


The Lilac Review launched on the 1st of February 2024 to understand the key changes required to make the world of entrepreneurship more equitable to Disabled entrepreneurs.

The first phase of this work included a wide range of focus groups with Disabled founders and a literature review of the extensive insight into Disabled entrepreneurship that already exists, as well as submission of evidence.

This has led to some specific recommendations for Government, financial services and business support organisations that are laid out in this The Lilac Review Interim Report.

The interim research report was developed in collaboration with Small Business Britain and ARU Peterborough, with support from Lloyds Bank.

This will be followed up in 2025 with the next phase of the Review reporting which will include insight from thousands of Disabled entrepreneurs as well as input from a wide range of organisations working in disability and entrepreneurship.

Our Interim Report is also accessible in British Sign Language.
